A 33-year-old woman presented with a 5×8 mm hard brownish papule, which was suspected to be a dermatofibroma. Results of pathology showed basal cell carcinoma-like epidermal changes in addition to the common pathological features of dermatofibroma. Immunohistological examination led to a diagnosis of dermatofibroma accompanied by basaloid epidermal hyperplasia.
